I've seen this widget on a number of Android phones, but I haven't been able to find it in the Marketplace. Can anyone tell me what this widget is called?

Thanks

    It's not a marketplace app. It's a widget called Power Control. I'm not sure about 1.5/1.6, but it's definitely in 2.x and up.

    Thanks. Apparently it's part of the stock Android install, and I've missed it in the widgets list.

    Yeah, that is built into the android core. It is a very helpful widget.

    It's called Power Control, not Android. Don't make me bust a cap in yo' ass, FC.

    Guess I had dismissed Power Control as a possibility because of its icon. Looked more like a shortcut to the settings menu.

    For more customizability, including putting more than 5 switches in the setup, check out SwitchPro and/or Extended Controls.

    (Yes, I know this is late.)

    But a very cool find nonetheless. Thanks!

    For ultimate customizability and awesometasticness... get LauncherPro. Seriously, best home screen ever.

    Looks.... iPhoneish.

    LauncherPros bundled widgets alone make it worth it. Love the combo Facebook and Twitter widget.

    You mean somebody's theme looks iPhoneish? Because it certainly doesn't by default, imo:

    Obviously it's personal preference, but dismissing it as iPhoneish might be disingenuous to people who haven't seen/tried it.

    I love ADW Launcher. I'm using the Cyanogenmod version with CM6 on my Hero.

    Ah... I was just going by the screenshots they have posted on the ADW Launcher website.
